SUMMARY:Re-Stitching Culture
DESCRIPTION:RE-STITCHING CULTURE\n22 February – 17 March 2017 \nPlease join Vice-Chancellor Professor Caroline McMillen for the exhibition launch:\nTHURSDAY 22 FEBRUARY FROM 5:30PM\nTHE UNIVERSITY GALLERY\n \nDoll-making is an intrinsic part of many Indigenous cultures across the world\, including communities in Australia\, Canada and South Africa. In all three cultures\, doll-making represents a transfer of cultural knowledge\, the building of capacity\, and the reclaiming of Indigenous identity\, on both a local and a collective level. \nThe benefits of these outcomes are important to supporting health and wellbeing in Indigenous communities. RE-STITCHING CULTURE showcases examples of doll-making from three Indigenous groups that continue to strengthen their local communities. Specifically\, the Gomeroi Yarning dolls (Australia) which encourage the sharing of oral personal narratives; the Six Nations Cornhusk dolls (Canada) to promote the transmission of cultural teachings; and the Siyazama Zulu dolls (South Africa) used to create community support networks through locally relevant HIV/AIDS awareness. \n
